Bristol Airport partners with IDeaS to optimise parking inventory

IDeaS Revenue Solutions is to implement its Car Park Revenue Management System at Bristol Airport to optimise 17,000+ parking spaces.

Bristol Airport is to utilise the IDeaS Car Park Revenue Management System to improve forecasting capabilities and automate complex, manual processes.

  • Product and Service Innovation – To keep pace with changes in mobility and meet consumer expectations, the airport is investing in data analytics to provide personalised products and maintain a positive parking experience.
  • Optimal Toolset – While the airport considered business intelligence platforms that could be used to look backward and assess what could have been done differently, IDeaS’ predictive analytics and machine learning were selected to look forward – to provide a 365-day forecast that would ensure optimal use of all parking inventory.
  • Mitigated Risk – As the airport’s pricing strategy has become more granular, traditional methods and spreadsheets have become too complicated for human analysis alone. An automated solution will also provide a safety net to protect the business in the event of staff turnover.

Guy Barnes, Head of Global Sales, Parking, IDeaS, will speak at the ACI EUROPE Airport Commercial & Retail Conference, hosted by Prague Airport, 21-23 April 2020, on the subject of “Generating rapid revenue growth from parking”.

“IDeaS understands our business and has demonstrated global success in airport parking,” says Tom Hack, Head of Commercial, Bristol Airport. “With our drivers at the steering wheel, IDeaS is the analytics engine that will enable us to be more effective with our parking inventory and overall revenue strategy.”
